The plot: Armando has always been the black sheep of his dysfunctional clan, never able to emerge from the shadows of his younger brother Raul. Their father Miguel Ernesto has always lavished praise on Raul and been unstinting in his criticism of Armando, creating a natural divide between the heirs apparent. Tensions escalate when Raul returns to the family homestead with his beautiful fiancee Sonia, who stirs long-dormant feelings in Armando.

what the others say
Time Out
"Odd, intermittently amusing but wholly unsatisfying, an oddball experiment that simply doesn't work."
Empire
"Often inspired but patchy overall, Ferrell's horse opera could have benefited from a sharper, even more out-there script."
Total Film
"A joyous, ramshackle celebration of sloppy filmmaking and cheapo production design."
